    I have had my Hr-44 fro two weeks and love it. Only problem is it has locked up three times since I got it. Each time, the only fix is red button reset. This always happens on live tv. Completely locks up and loses sound. Works great otherwise, and definitely faster than my HR-24, but the...

    Lost Sound

    The wife turned on the TV this morning and there was no sound. This has happened before after an overnight update. We got the new HD guide last night so I figure this caused the sound problem. A rb reset always gets the sound back. The receiver is a HR-24 500. We have same receiver in the...

    Direct Cinema

    I am now connected to DTV Direct Cinema, and must say I am rather disappointed. I thought I would be able to stream movies like on Netflix or Amazon, but all I see are PPV, and movies that are on DTV to record {if you have that channel} Is that all there is?

    DTV Customer Service

    I had to call DTV Customer Sevice for the first time last night. After reading some of the horror stories on here, I wasnt sure what to expect. I got right in with no waiting, which was a pleasant surprise, and actually spoke with someone who spoke English!! Already this is much better than...

    The remote for the SD receiver in the bedroom has gone belly up. It will not operate anything. Brand new batteries did not help. You can operate the receiver from the front panel, but remote is dead. Is there something I can do to fix this, or replacement the only option? Remote is only...

    The D12-100 standard receiver in the bedroom is acting up. When you try to go to a channel from the guide it will sometimes give an error message that we dont get that channel (we do), and sometimes it will go to a blank screen with sound. I have tried menu reset, red button reset, and...
